The global trade industry has tested supply chain resilience to its breaking point. Complete lockdowns, severe bottlenecks, rising freight prices and inflation have made us conscious of the vulnerability of global supply chains. Further, the pandemic has taken a new detour and is threatening to derail optimistic plans of a robust economic bounce back.
